Beth Sabatino
The Cannabean Betrothal, Ch. 15-16

Chapter 15
-----------
Edward is so racked with betrayal by those he loves in his life, that it has become his rule instead of his exception. He is always waiting for the other shoe to drop with Bella. He is expecting it to end in disaster. In other words, especially this chapter, he is a bit of a self-fulfilling prophesy.

Not only does Bella need to talk to him, but he needs to express his feelings and needs to her. She thinks she is doing things to please him, but they are both operating under assumptions. They need to sit down and lay it all on the table.

...and Edward needs to jerk it a bit more often. I know he feels sinful and guilty when he does, but for physical health and mental, I think he needs it.

Chapter 16
-----------
Finally some talking! The communication issues are exacerbated by their courting rules. There are subjects that they CAN'T talk about...or at least it appears that they can't. Like the issue of why the dress was a problem. I hope they keep talking.

Nice to see has a bit of a temper to her. Some fire. She'll need that if she is going to spend her life with Edward to pull him out of his sullen tendencies. I hope she unleashes it on him more often when he starts to be a jackass.

Poor, confused kids.
